Chapter 238 Observation

"You are this." Xu Yi raised his eyes and saw the name of the building in front of him. He couldn't help but be surprised. He showed a very strange expression on his face and asked, "Is your tutor here?"

It’s not that he has no determination. This place really surprised Xu Yi. The tutor that Zheng Jie mentioned, Professor Michael, was actually in a mental hospital.

Is he working in it or a patient inside?

When Zheng Jie saw Xu Yi's strange expression, she burst into laughter. For a moment, the cold war between the two ended.

"Don't show such a look, okay, I can't stand you. Professor Michael is a famous American psychologist and psychiatry expert. He works here just to facilitate his own research."

"Ahem, oh, I understand." Xu Yi laughed dryly and followed her and stopped talking.

However, as he walked, Xu Yi felt something was wrong again. His mentor was an expert in psychiatrics. So, was she the one who brought me to see him? Thinking of this, he couldn't help feeling chills, and a big guy with a grin, saliva and a weird look appeared in his mind.

Obviously, Zheng Jie has come here a lot, and the guard who is in charge of checking in and out knows her. She greets her kindly and lets her in without even reading the ID.

As expected, the mental hospital is like a prison. It has many iron gates inside, so you will definitely not be able to escape from here easily. When you walk inside, Xu Yi feels a little depressed, or because the lines and colors of the buildings here are too monotonous, or maybe it is because the place is too quiet.

Along the way, many patients in white uniforms were walking or moving on the lawn. These people looked more normal, just like patients in ordinary hospitals. The only difference was that their limbs were relatively healthy and they didn’t see a single person missing arms and legs.

They did not have any contact with any of the patients, and went directly through the lawn to a four-story building. This building looked like a villa and had a small garden in front of it.

Xu Yi asked, "It's this?"

"Well, this is where Professor Michael usually does research. When there is a topic, he will live here. I have made an appointment with him and he has time today." After that, Zheng Jie rang the doorbell.

Professor Michael took a day out today because his favorite student asked him to receive a very special guest. Obviously, Zheng Jie attaches great importance to this guest. Professor Michael speculated that Zheng Jie's relationship with him must be unusual. With this relationship, he agreed to Zheng Jie's request and did not charge any fees. In addition, he turned down most dates and jobs today and prepared for it specifically.

Even if there is no such relationship, if Zheng Jie's speculation is correct, then this case is too special and deserves his attention.

First, he prepared a set of intelligence test questions, which he designed specifically for this kind of case. Then he also prepared some special pictures, the largest of which was a very weird oil painting. Today he hung out the oil painting and placed it in a very prominent position. As long as people come in, they can basically see it. In addition, he also placed some small things in an inconspicuous position in the living room.

While he was flipping through some historical case files, the doorbell rang.

"It's finally here." Professor Michael's heart was filled with excitement. Although he was old now, he was still passionate. He often looked like a refreshing young man.

Professor Michael saw the patient, and Professor Michael had been observing him since the department he had just entered.

As an intermediary, Zheng Jie introduced the relationship between the two parties. After a while, Professor Michael gave an excuse to discuss with Zheng Jie with something temporarily. The two got into his study and left Xu Yi alone in the living room.

Today, the study room full of this classical atmosphere has added a set of modern equipment. This is a set of surveillance equipment, which he transported from the hospital yesterday. Through the monitor on the equipment, the situation in the living room is clear at a glance.

"Professor Michael, you are this?" Zheng Jie was wondering why the professor suddenly called himself to the study alone and left the guest alone in the living room. This was obviously very impolite.

Professor Michael waved his hand and signaled her not to speak, then pointed to the monitor and asked her to observe together.

In the monitor, Xu Yi was sitting upright on the sofa. He was thinking with his head down at first, but after a moment he began to look at the living room. Then, he suddenly stopped and his eyes stopped in one direction. He stood up and walked towards the other side.

"He found out." Professor Michael muttered, then followed Xu Yi with the camera in control of the camera. It showed that Xu Yi walked to a pair of oil pictures hanging on the wall and looked at it with interest.

What did he find? Zheng Jie was puzzled. Is it that oil painting? Although she had many questions to ask, she still didn't speak. She knew that Professor Michael was a very creative person, and the methods he used during the research process could not be viewed with common sense.

Obviously, he is now studying Xu Yi, or his condition.

"From his expression, I should understand the painting." Professor Michael said to Zheng Jie.

Since he spoke on his own initiative, Zheng Jie couldn't help it and asked, "Professor, did you just hang his painting? Is it specifically for this treatment?"

"You're right, beautiful jie. It's a great oil painting that only a specific group of people can understand."

"Why do you mean that Xu Yi is really the type of person?" Zheng Jie understood Professor Michael's words. Although she was the first to doubt Xu Yi's illness, she was still surprised after Professor Michael personally admitted it.

"Maybe, it needs further observation. After all, there are still some talented people who can understand the painting. Huh?" Professor Michael suddenly turned his attention to the monitor again, and then said in surprise like a child discovering fun toys, "Ha, he discovered it again!"

Xu Yi turned around, then looked forward, then he walked a few steps to the left, then suddenly paused, showing a strange expression. Then he suddenly raised his right hand, stretched straight forward, raised his thumb up, then slowly rotated counterclockwise, and then took a few steps to the left. At this time, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, the kind that was very sudden.

"Okay, we can go out." Professor Michael said, then took out the test questions that had been prepared from the drawer and walked out of the bedroom.

Zheng Jie was still confused at this moment. She was thinking: "What was Xu Yi doing just now? Could it be that his strange behavior was expected by the professor?"
